A Whole New Meaning for "Demolition Derby"


Pretty much everything you may have ever wanted to know about car/truck bombs, plus probably plenty of things you didn't want to know, are in these two articles. Like, for instance, that the first historically recorded "car" bomb was actually a cart-bomb, as in horse, buggy...um, boom. (set off in New York City, 1920)

Once you're done, this sobering article points out how car-bombs seemed to have already stymied Shrub's so-called "Surge." Then, of course, there's the car-bomb's first cousin, the IED.

Nice going, Team Bush: while you were busily prancing about and preparing your pathetic victory dance, HUNDREDS OF TONS of unguarded, conventional weapons/explosives were being hauled away by the "defeated" Iraqis--explosives that presently kill and maim our soldiers. Way to support the troops.
